@paulg @cjoneslevy Compared to the US, the UK startup scene is hamstrung because we have ASA’s that are limited to a ridiculously short 6 months due to HRMC rulings

Raising a toast tonight to my good friend @plcowley who sadly passed away this weekend. Peter was an inspiration to me and many others. Peter you won't be forgotten. With love to Lies, Matt, Catherine and Miri. (This photo was taken just 5 weeks ago at his London book launch)

Please PLEASE don't make us stick on GMT all-year round

If we have to stick to one all year, make it BST for goodness sake.

Don't steal an hour of evening light for half the year...

When you dig into the hidden detail of the government's carbon capture and storage programme, the sheer scale of fiscal and environmental irresponsibility is hard to comprehend. We could be on the hook for £50 billion, with zero benefit. My column. 🧵 https://t.co/bXDZkX3cYK

The rise of the killer cars.

Incredible statistics

[Mill Road for People @MillRoad4People]

Support the County Council TRO to allow pedestrians, cyclists, buses, blue badge holders and taxis over the bridge. And not private motor vehicles, whose drivers will still be able to access all of Mill Road.

If not now - when?

[Mill Road for People @MillRoad4People]

Very disappointing to see a prominent local businessman encouraging pro-traffic people to make multiple submissions in the Mill Rd bridge consultation. Clearly not confident that they have the support of local people for their views (they don't).

Today’s review marks a huge step forward for UK spinout founders 🇬🇧

It adopts almost all of the policy reform proposals I made via @spinoutfyi and have been pushing on for 2 years.

A few thoughts on why this is a big day for the ecosystem and UK science&tech below:

[David Aaronovitch @DAaronovitch]

This war on motorists, when's it beginning? Because every street round here is still almost entirely monopolised by the motor car. As are some of the pavements where neighbours' cars are longer than their front yards, so we have to walk in the road.

@Sam_in_Cam If Argent had been the developer for CB1 I’m sure we would have ended up with something much better than we have now
